Passivation of Metals and Semiconductors, and Properties of Thin Oxide Layers contains a selection of papers presented at PASSIVITY-9, the 9th International Symposium on the Passivation of Metals and Semiconductors and the Properties of Thin Oxide Layers, which was held in Paris, 27 June – 1 July, 2005. One hundred and twelve peer-reviewed manuscripts have been included. The book covers all the fundamental and applied aspects of passivity and provides a relevant and updated view of the advances and new trends in the field. It is structured in ten sections: * Growth, (Nano)structure and Composition of Passive Films * Passivity of Semiconductors * Electronic Properties of Passive Films * Passivity Issues in Biological Systems * Passivity in High-Temperature Water * Mechanical Properties of Passive Films, * Passivity Issues in Stress Corrosion Cracking and Tribocorrosion * Passivity Breakdown and Localized Corrosion * Modeling and Simulation * Surface Modifications and Inhibitors (for Improved Corrosion Resistance and/or Adhesion)
